20 yr. wait for first 300 is over.
« on: October 27, 2005, 02:59:39 AM »
Well I have been bowling for 20 years, and last night I finally rolled my first sanctioned 300, using a Track Freak. Now I know how others feel when you get to the 10th frame, I couldn't stop shaking , but took deep breaths, and got the ball off my hand. On a side note my Delta Rule came yesterday, and I threw several games of practice with it, boy what a strong roll throughout the the shot.

Very nice shooting! I got my first (and thus far my only) 300 with a Track Freak as well!  Almost 2 years ago, at a house that hasn't had a 300 since, and hadn't had one in 4 years before that!

But not to take away from your thunder, VERY nice shooting

Well done.  Though a lot of folks denegrate getting 12 straight, it ain't easy.  Hope you get the second one a lot sooner than the first.
